Plus two buyouts to use to fix past mistakes. Imagine if there had been no lockout... the Flyers would be screwed.

Yup. These buyouts are like get out of jail free cards.

I might regret saying it, but I feel like if a stupid trade were coming down the pike it would've happened by now.

The above scenario could very well happen especially with every team not in the playoffs getting a shot at #1. Flames will only get worse, Avs are terrible as well. Who thinks the Flyers will actually luck out for once and get the #1 pick? I sure dont.

Jones would sure look great but honestly as long as they have 1 of the first 3 picks I think it's a can't miss type player.

I almost think they'll want mackinnon or drouin over jones just becase they. Arent patient enough to develop him. I can see them taking mackinnon and moving coots or schenn for byfuglien or yandle.

Honesly I would be ok with that..I think the top 3 are no miss stud players. Taking one of the 2 forwards makes other players expendable for a dman that is already closer to what they need in progression.

If popular culture has taught me anything, it's that the Ladies Room is already an oasis and paradise no matter where you go.

That's why women go to the bathroom in groups, right?

There was a huge landslide last night on Whidbey Island, a drunk driver convicted of multiple prior DUIs plowed into a family of 4 in Seattle, 2 killed and 2 critical, the Italians want to re try Amanda Knox, and they legalized marijuana. That's about it for WA right now. I got my potatoes planted and the cherry trees are blossoming.

You had me at legalized marijuana!!

Honestly, I'd rather they go that route. Reason being, a defenseman can take upwards of. 5 years to develop. In pro sports that's a long time and then you have to hope that player becomes what you need him or projected him to be. That's shooting bullets in the dark. So , if they can acquire a dman who's NHL ready, then do it. In the meantime the organization needs to shift its scouting and player development towards finding and drafting defensemen. This way as the established player is aging, the younger player can be brought in, hopefully in stride with other player's decline.
